declining years card thread... show a card

well I tried to post a 1929 Gomez ZeeNut, but I was too late, and Photobucket seemed easier on the old board.

Try using the [IMG] code (not direct link) when posting pics from Photobucket. I find no problems using this method.

Frank,

I use the HTML link with photobucket and it works great.

1919 Zeenut
 

Kevin must be asking for a 1919 zeenut. Here is Doc Crandall. You T206 guys know him from the set.

A 1918 ZeeNut, Williams, San Francisco Seals.

http://www.net54baseball.com/picture...7&pictureid=98

I need a bit of help...
Who is this player Williams?? I don't see any Williams in the PCL in 1918, the only one I see in 1917 is Ken Williams. He was with Portland that year. In 1918 he was with the St. Louis Browns for 2 games, I don't see him playing anywhere else that year. My understanding is that he served in the military during WW I. I wonder if this card is of Ken Williams who might have been traded to San Francisco before he enlisted... or it may well be some other Williams.

x

Frank, I have seen that player identified as David Williams before, and the SABR site does have a D. Williams that played in the Northwestern League in 1915 & 1916, it could be the same guy, not quite sure though.

1915 Postaco Stamps,

I wanted to do something other than a Cracker Jack or another Zeenut card.

Frank, you're tooooooooooo fast for me :)

Steve - I feel like the little kid from the "Sixth Sense" (I see baseball cards rather than dead people) - I guess I'm the only one seeing my pictures. Let me know if you see these:

1907 Dietsche Postcard of that great pitcher, who'd be in the Hall if the owners hadn't screwed him around and cost him games the last few years of his career, because he'd been so prominent in the Baseball Fraternity movement... Ed Reulbach.

1904
 

Nice McGuire...

I don't have an E107, I think they're 1903. Then it's going to get tough for us... And no doubt Leon is dusting off one of those T203's for when we get to 1900. I might have to find some Harper's woodcuts to get us back to the Old Judges.

Steve, both Fan Craze sets are from 1906, despite the slab. But here is a 1904 Stenzel Pin of the popular Mike Donlin

That's an awesome piece! Do you have any more of them?

I have 2 others from 1899, Stahl and Davis, here they are...

I also have some from 1900...

And some more...

The Standard Catalog has no entries for 1897, which is where we've halted.

In 1896 the Catalog shows Mayo N301s.

In 1895 there are Mayo N300s, Newsboy Cabinets, and Police Gazzette Supplements.

For 1890 I have the 4 page supplement that was in Harper's Weekly, if we can get that far along.

I'm not sure whether the Keeler and Clarke Alpha Engraving cards have ever been located but here is how they would appear. Keeler top row far left. W. J. Clarke bottom row second from the right.

Have we given up on this?

Looking for 1892

I've not given up... just waiting. I'll post for 1890 unless someone else has an 1890 item they want to show... This was interesting. Once we get to the 1860s we should do it again, with items from series posted here disqualified.

According to Terry Knouse, from whom I purchased this cabinet, this dates to 1890.

I don't have anything from 1892, but here's 1891...

Well we missed 1892 back there...

1889

This was the 2nd time Harpers Weekly had a baseball image on its cover.

Here's the November 9, 1889 first page, showing William Ewing, Captain of the New York Base-Ball Club. 9 1/2" x 12"...

Of course, 1887 is an easy one.........

I really wish I had something from 1892, but here's 1886...

Edited again to add a scorecard with 23 year old Connie Mack catching.

1885

Harpers Weekly. The Chicago Base-Ball Club, October 17, 1885. 5 1/2" x 9 1/2", includes Anson, Kelly, Clarkson, Williamson, and Billy Sunday.

1885, the sequel...

Actually, due to it's August 22 date, I suppose it's the prequel.
